Movie characters often make the crossover to feature in video games, with plenty of Hollywood adaptations over the last few years in the video game industry. People always enjoy taking control of their favourite characters and playing out their own adventures with them. As well as featuring in video games, many movie characters have starred in slots in recent times.
Slots are casino games that can be played in person or online. They’re easy to play, as players simply select their bet before hitting the spin button to see the reels turning. To win in a slot, all you need to do is match combinations of symbols across the paylines of the reels. Unlike in video games, there’s no skill involved, and it’s also possible to win real money.
All the best pokies online can be found at licenced online casinos, and they can be a lot of fun to play. Depending on which type of games you prefer, you’ll have loads of variety to choose from, including those that feature famous movies. Below are a few of the movie characters we’d love to see in slots.
The Joker
As far as villains go, few are as well known as the Joker. Starting out as a comic book bad guy in DCs Batman comics, the Joker has gone on to appear in multiple Batman films as well as his own film. Loads of great actors have portrayed this classic villain over the years, including Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger and Joaquim Phoenix. As well as being a great character, we also think he’d be great to have in a slot game. Imagine all the different bonuses and special features that a Joker slot could have. It would no doubt be loads of fun to play.
Mad Max
The original Mad Max trilogy that came out during the 80s was a classic of Australian cinema. It spawned loads of similar films, all set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, and has helped influence pop culture even today. In 2015, Mad Max Fury Road came out, which helped bring new eyes to the franchise and got people talking about Mad Max once more. Although Mel Gibson wasn’t in the remake, it was still a great watch, and Max would be a great character to have in a slot game. Some of the other characters such as Furiosa, Immortan Joe and Nux would also be great additions.
Legolas
The Lord of the Rings is one of the most popular fantasy series of all time, and although the first film came out in 2001, it’s still immensely popular today. Part of the reason why it’s so popular is because of all the different characters, each of whom were unique. Few were as popular as Legolas, who was played by Orlando Bloom. The wood elf, who was an excellent archer, got a lot of screentime throughout the trilogy and is one of the best-loved characters of any film series. He’d make an excellent slot game that could also feature orcs, archery, and the help of his friend Gimli.
James Bond
James Bond was a big fan of gambling, so it makes sense that he’d feature in a slot game. While he preferred to play Baccarat in the books, the on-screen version of Bond enjoyed a game of Texas Hold ‘Em in Casino Royale. Bond would be an excellent slot player, taking his time and making good use of bonus features to collect big payouts. We can imagine a Bond slot including some great bonus rounds, such as free spins and jackpots.
